It's interesting how we have made action figures out of industrial legends.
We imagine new adventures for them, going on to command such-and-such a
ship, turning the world inside out, or just repeating the favorite hero
moves to comic effect.
So, like, imagine if the greatest legends were to all come together in one
place on one adventure, like the Argonauts seeking the Golden Fleece: Steve
Jobs (Jason) recruits Woz (Hercules) and the all-seeing but vision-impaired
Phineas (played by Bill Gates)...
Perhaps a later generation will get time mixed up and throw in Einstein as a
contemporary...
